Presenter: Amy Phillips Session Title: Living with Heart – A Practical Look at Living and Leading from Heart- Centered Consciousness Session Description: In this session, attendees will explore the difference between living from your heart (being authentic, vulnerable, courageous, and in touch with emotional wisdom) and living from your head (listening to fear-based narratives, being reactive vs. responsive, overthinking, judging, etc.). Attendees will be presented with social and science-based research that shows that heart-centered living and leading (in the home, workplace, within Sigma Kappa, within our communities and most meaningful relationships) leads to greater fulfillment, more happiness, more peace of mind and more desirable outcomes. Attendees will gain greater awareness around their own fear-based, reactive behavior and learn tools to tap create possibilities for more conscious decision-making.

In this session we will take a deeper look at some of our membership practices and examine how “toxic femininity” hurts collegiate chapters, as well as diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.

We’ll also share ideas for pre- and post-event surveys to help chapters gather ideas and feedback to strengthen their own chapter programming. Week of August 17: Presenter: Lisa Humenik, Molly Kenney, Kristin Gustke and Rachel Phelps Session Title: Teamwork in Times of Crisis Session Description: Advisory board and corporation board members are invited to attend this special live session focused on relationship building!

It is my honor and pleasure to welcome you with the gift of this stole. With it, I remind you of the words of Jesus in Matthew 30: "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." I pray that each time you take up this stole to lead worship, you are reminded of God’s still-speaking presence, And that each time you lift it from your shoulders, you take time to glance outside these windows to the beautiful world God has created, And that as you serve this congregation, you meet Christ again and again and again, And live with delight and a song in your heart, that these are your people in easy and not so easy times, bound together always in love and faith.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: COMMUNICATING FEAR in FILM
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: COMMUNICATING FEAR IN FILM MUSIC: A SOCIOPHOBIC ANALYSIS OF ZOMBIE FILM SOUNDTRACKS Pedro Gonzalez-Fernandez Master of Arts, 2014 Directed By: Dr. Patrick Warfield, Musicology The horror film soundtrack is a complex web of narratological, ethnographic, and semiological factors all related to the social tensions intimated by a film. This study examines four major periods in the zombie’s film career—the Voodoo zombie of the 1930s and 1940s, the invasion narratives of the late 1960s, the post-apocalyptic survivalist fantasies of the 1970s and 1980s, and the modern post-9/11 zombie—to track how certain musical sounds and styles are indexed with the content of zombie films. Two main musical threads link the individual films’ characterization of the zombie and the setting: Othering via different types of musical exoticism, and the use of sonic excess to pronounce sociophobic themes.

  • Great Listener
    HOW TO BE A Great Listener Learn the Art of Listening to Create Intimate Conversation, Trust, and Love How to be a Great Listener Building love and trust involves really listening to our partners, which is not as easy as it sounds. Asking the right questions, empathizing, and making someone feel understood are skills that can dramatically increase intimacy in any relationship. To help you learn how to do this, we recommend that you periodically take your partner’s emotional temperature. You’ll ask, among other things, “How are you doing, baby?” not out of politeness, but because you really want to know. How often is “periodically?” Schedule these times at first, and soon it will come naturally. Try it once a day to start. STEP 1 PREPARE YOURSELF • Shift the focus away from yourself. • Postpone your own agenda for a while. • It’s not about being interesting, it’s about being INTERESTED —genuinely—in the other person. • Tune into your partner’s world. • Hear your partner’s pain, even if you don’t agree with the details. • Try to see your partner’s world from her or his perspective, not your own. Pretend you are doing Mr. Spock’s Vulcan Mind Meld (from Star Trek). 1 STEP 2 ATTUNE That means it’s your job as a listener to be “present” with your partner. Do not minimize your partner’s feelings. When you listen, do not take responsibility for your partner’s feelings. Do not try to make your partner feel better. Do not try to cheer your partner up.

Director An abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Ministry in the Divinity School of Duke University 2021 ii Copyright by Preston Andrews Davis 2021 Abstract This Thesis unfolds in three moves to explore the rise in fear and anxiety in young adults and to provide a theological response from a chapel office on a college campus. The first move involves an exegetical reading of the Markan parable (adapted in Matthew) of “Binding the Strong Man”. This parable serves as an overarching metaphor for the nature of both the fearful realities many young adults find themselves in and the nature of the God who seeks to break into that reality and remind us of our innate value and worth in God. The parable asks us to think about whom we follow and call our leader, for whom we follow will form us at the deepest levels individually and collectively.

    Changing Your Relationship With Fear Leads To Professional Success…rnational Institute Of Directors And Managers | IIDM - IIDM Global 25/2/21, 1:48 pm Home / Expert Talk / Expert Talk Categories / Personal Success / Avoiding Burnout & Stress Changing Your Relationship With Fear Leads To Professional Success By Dr Amy Silver We all have fears, many of which keep us safe and well. It is the job of fear to warn us of danger and avoid risk. Fear wants us to avoid anything which would cause physical or social pain. But how much does fear interfere with our good choices? There are biological, evolutionary, and social reasons why our fear is triggered, we are, after all simple animals. Learning how to override our fear is essential in helping us fulfil our potential. If left unchecked, fear can control everything we do. We become a bystander, commanded by the voice of fear as it triggers biochemical reactions that cause us to fight, flight or play dead. Fear wants to keep us away from discomfort but if we listen to it all the time does it steer us away from growth? Or opportunity? Does our fear of rejection, failure, exclusion, being different, having to change, being vulnerable or showing weakness, limit what we could do or who we could be? And as well as limiting us from gains we could make, fear also leads to distress and feelings of anxiety or worry. We may have a fear of missing out, fear of being overlooked, fear of being seen, of speaking up, standing up or even a fear of being taken advantage of.

  • Representation of Traumatic Experience in the Film Enduring Love
    Sini Mononen LISTENING TO THE RESONANCE: Representation of Traumatic Experience in the Film Enduring Love Enduring Love (dir. Roger Michell, UK, 2004), a film based on an original novel of the same title by Ian McEwan (1997), treats the theme of trauma in two violent events: a hot air balloon accident and stalking. Both the accident and the stalking portray trauma as a trial whereby a subject loses control of his own life. In the film, the main character, Joe Rose (Daniel Craig), and his partner, Claire (Saman- tha Morton), witness the hot air balloon accident, which leads to a man’s death. From here, the story unravels through Joe’s trauma process. The trauma is deep- ened by another distressing factor that escalates after the accident: the obsessive stalking of Joe by Jed Parry (Rhys Ifans). In the film Joe’s traumatic experience is represented by two leitmotifs: “Bal- loon Music” and the sound of wind. These leitmotifs represent trauma as asso- ciated with falling, distressing flashbacks, a state of knowing and not-knowing, unspeakable experience and “felt truth”, that is, tactile epistemology. Further- more, they depict trauma in relation to “obsession”: in Joe’s case obsession is rep- resented, on the one hand, as a result of trauma whereby Joe is “obsessed” with his trials. On the other hand, the trauma is a result of Jed’s obsessive behaviour, stalking. Through the rich use of music and sound, Joe is portrayed as a listening sub- ject who listens to his experience in order to work through his traumas.
